He grew up! #lovewhatido #obgyn #ladydocfolsom #ruthhaskinsmd Happy Father's Day weekend to all you wonderful loving fathers! #happyfathersday #obgyn #ladydocfolsom #ruthhaskinsmd As temperatures begin to rise, please be aware that simple common sense precautions really help in ensuring you and your loved ones remain healthy, especially during pregnancy. This is simple but pertinent advice from the CDC: • Never leave people or pets in a closed car on a warm day. • Take cool showers or baths. • Wear loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing. • Use your oven less to help reduce the temperature in your home. • If you’re outside, find shade. Wear a hat wide enough to protect your face. • Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated. • Avoid high-energy activities or work outdoors, during midday heat, if possible. • Check on family members, older adults and neighbors. • Watch for heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. • Consider pet safety. If they are outside, make sure they have plenty of cool water and access to comfortable shade. Asphalt and dark pavement can be very hot to your pet’s feet. #heatsafety #obgyn #ladydocfolsom #ruthhaskinsmd The history of Pride Month By 316th Wing Historian.
In June, we celebrate and recognize Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) Pride Month in honor of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising. The purpose of the commemorative month is to recognize the impact that lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have had on history; locally, nationally, and internationally. The Stonewall Riots occurred due to a raid by New York City police on the Stonewall Inn, a gay club located in Greenwich Village on June 28th, 1969. Angered by police harassment and social discrimination, the events of June 28th sparked six days of protests and galvanized the gay rights movement. America’s first gay pride parade was held on the one-year anniversary of the riots. Pride Month was first recognized in 1994 when a coalition of education-based organizations in the United States designated October as LGBT History Month. The federal government first recognized the month in 1999 when President Bill Clinton declared June “Gay & Lesbian Pride Month.” In 2009, President Barack Obama declared June LGBT Pride Month. On 1 June 2021, President Joe Biden declared June LGBTQ Pride Month.
